Common Intensity Questions
My stimulation intensity changes frequently throughout my treatment
session, is this ok?
It is common for sensory thresholds to change throughout sessions as
well as between sessions. This is because the variables that affect
conductivity which causes perception of the stimulation and
establishes a sensory level, can vary depending on time of day, skin
conductivity and stress levels etc.
Should I be able to feel the stimulation during my session?
Stimulation intensity for your treatment session should be one level
below the sensory level where it can be perceived or felt. For most
people this is between Level 1 - Level 15, however some people need
to go to the maximum to find their sensory threshold and then
gradually reduce to their optimal therapeutic threshold.
Note:
​ ​
The tragus is a sensitive area and it is important not to over-stimulate
with too high an intensity or for too long a period of time.
Will I still need to take medications?
You and your healthcare provider (HCP) should discuss your ongoing
treatment routine, including the use of any additional therapies and/or
medications. It is important to always follow your HCP’s
recommendations about your medications.
